Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Martin Salter (Labour). It was answered by Baroness Hughes of Stretford (Labour) on Monday, 27 April 2009 on behalf of the Department for Children, Schools and Families.


Free Nursery Places (Reading)

Question
How many three and four year olds in Reading have free nursery places.
Answer

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for his question. As he knows, free entitlement to early-years provision for three and four-year-olds is a universal offer that is taken up by almost all four-year-olds and more than 95 per cent. of three-year-olds. In Reading that equates to approximately 3,500 places, helping to give three and four-year-olds the best possible start in life.
